How is country matching done?

We combine physical venue location, organizer country, city references, and program eligibility (not just keyword searches in titles) to give you the most accurate pool.

This varies. Fully funded opportunities and residencies often cover travel expenses or provide travel grants, while others only fund local accommodation.

Most listed opportunities are open internationally. Any citizenship or residency restrictions are structured and highlighted on the program card.
